Tubeless flat on trail

[zion zig zag]

I bought the Camelbak off Jenson. It's pretty nice as an alternative to a real pack for shorter rides. Kinda carries like shit when really full but gets a lot better as you drink. Hip pockets are a really nice touch, essential for me. Great deal at $35 over there. No reason not to try it.

Do you think it's a no go for carrying a camera + lens? My idea was that I could spin the pack around to the front to access instead of having to take my pack off all of the time.

Anyone use the Dynaplugs?

I think if you dont use the bladder you could get your camera in there.

Certainly not in front of the children.

^^^Kinda this. you could still put *some* water in there I bet. It has a pretty good suspension system but again, it gets overwhelmed when really full. For me, for a quick bobsled lap it's perfect.

I'm just looking for options. I have some swat bibs too. I haven't been using them much but nice to have . I guess the problem is the useless under the downtube water bottle mount on my frame. I've been using a small camelback hip pack with insulated bottle. Works well for the shorter local rides with co2 , adapter, levers, multi tool , levers, patch kit with couple small extras and a tight squeeze to get my keys in. I strap a tube to my bike. Going to get the race face strap for the tube that has a little pouch for levers and co2 and adapter. The new bigger hip pack will have room for a bit more water , pump , arm warmers, superlight shell(100g), phone , tire plugs, and some other small extras. For longer rides

Hey, here's a solution for your tools and spare tube and you'll also get to utilize the "useless" under the downtube cage mount on your bike.

Anybody make any enduro chaps I can fit my tools in?




I refuse to ride with a backpack.

That could work. I've looked at them online. Wonder what they're made of? Hate to lose it off the bottom. May have things sorted though. New bike will have a bit extra steerer and fork on current bike will have extra steerer so may try one up edc

Not complaining but that's not even funny ATM. 30c for the last few days and for another 8 days. Think that's about 150F . Igloo is starting to melt out

Finally this thread is back on track, although I believe the OP would need all of this plus room for a spare tire and soap to set the bead. Possibly a small compressor or floor pump.

Please refrain from posting suggestions unless they meet these criteria.

[XXX-er]

There is a water thread and a tool thread which both basicly ask " how can I not carry stuff i should carry ?" and you want the collective TGR to be serious which is a stretch under any circumstance ?

[sethschmautz]

XXX-er, was that for me? I hope it was clear that I was just poking fun at the original post by Schindler . All joking aside, I think it's pretty incredible that he was able to do, on the trail, what many struggle with at home in their garage. :-)

All chaps are buttless.

For those of you that carry tube/levers/co2 under the seat, what method do you use? Something that doesn't attach to the dropper post.

Used to use a regular saddle bag, but had a hard time finding something that was big enough and didn't flop around without strapping it to the post. Never liked the open style, I'm too nervous about losing something and anyway don't really want mud all over my stuff. Picked up one of these recently and it seems to work pretty well:

Holds tube, levers, small multi-tool with room to spare (I could add a couple of CO2 cartridges or a chain tool if I wanted). No flopping and doesn't interfere with the dropper. Pricier than other options but I'm willing to pay a little more for something that does what I want (and hopefully lasts).
